the Homo Sapiens Agenda, and Sick Kids In Love.” - YA Books Central Highly recommend for fans of Nicola Yoon, Simon vs. “Heartfelt and charming, Only Mostly Devastated is a touching and delightful YA contemporary romance. Recommended for all teens.” - School Library Journal The power of this fun Grease retelling is that it normalizes the spectrum of sexual orientations. “Gonzales turns in a witty, smart, credible, and irreverent contemporary romance that handles all these elements skillfully and with heart. A worthwhile romance for any collection.” - Booklist “A queer YA romance that just got everything right at every turn was enough to break through the firm brick wall that has become my being and make all the feelings flood through.” - BookRiot
Ollie would have to be an idiot to trust him with it again.
The last time he gave Will his heart, Will handed it back to him trampled and battered. But then Will starts “coincidentally” popping up in every area of Ollie’s life, from music class to the lunch table, and Ollie finds his resolve weakening. Ollie has no intention of pining after a guy who clearly isn’t ready for a relationship, especially since this new, bro-y jock version of Will seems to go from hot to cold every other week. This Will is a class clown, closeted-and, to be honest, a bit of a jerk. Which he minds a little less when he realizes it’s the same school Will goes to…except Ollie finds that the sweet, comfortably queer guy he knew from summer isn’t the same one attending Collinswood High. Now Ollie is one prince short of his fairytale ending, and to complicate the fairytale further, a family emergency sees Ollie uprooted and enrolled at a new school across the country. Will Tavares is the dream summer fling-he’s fun, affectionate, kind-but just when Ollie thinks he’s found his Happily Ever After, summer vacation ends and Will stops texting Ollie back. I couldn't put it down.” - New York Times–bestselling author Sandhya Menon “A delightful, heartwarming, heartrending story about family, love, friendship, and living your most authentic life. “ Only Mostly Devastated is the kind of book I wish existed when my kids were younger-a charming, funny, laugh-out-loud teen romance that reminds all readers love comes in a multitude of flavors, and they are ALL sweet.” -Jodi Picoult, New York Times–bestselling author of Small Great Things and A Spark of Light the Homo Sapiens Agenda meets Clueless in this boy-meets-boy spin on Grease, from NATIONALLY and INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING author Sophie GonzalesĪ Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection
